So far, I let comments automaticaly and delete spammy/offending one reactively. It does not happen often. If it becomes a problem, I'll have to switch to moderating comments, just like you moderate comments on a blog.
- mschuster91 13y agoBut I can keep the moderating effort relatively low by adding a captcha (e.g. a choose-the-kitten picture quiz) - I do not see any point of inserting a "proof of work/humanity" here.
- Groxx 13y agoIt's not "if", it's "when". Since this is inherently an automated comment-propagation system, it seems significantly easier to spam billions of sites with a bot. Captchas suck / only work to some degree, but they work to some degree - what would be implemented in this system? I can see a proof-of-work system working reasonably well (gets rid of mass-spams, though big sites would still get automated ones), but it seems like there should be something baked into it if this is at all intended to grow beyond 'indie'.
